*Nikaah aur Janaaza*

*Nikaah aur Janaaza*

The _difference_ between a *wedding* and a *funeral*... beautifully captured in a _poem_ called:

*Farq Sirf Itna Sa Tha*

Teri *doli* uthi,
Meri *mayyat* uthi.
Phool _tujh_ par bhi barse,
Phool _mujh_ par bhi barse.
*Farq sirf itna sa tha...*
Tu _saj_ gayi,
Mujhe _sajaya_ gaya.

_Tu_ bhi ghar ko chali,
_Main_ bi ghar ko chala,
*Farq sirf itna sa tha...*
Tu _uth_ ke gayi,
Mujhe _uthaya_ gaya.

*Mehfil* wahan bhi thi,
*Log* yahan bhi the,
*Farq sirf itna sa tha...*
Unka _hasna_ wahan,
Inka _rona_ yahan.

*Qazi* udhar bhi tha,
*Maulvi* idhar bhi tha.
Do bol _tere_ padhe,
Do bol _mere_ padhe.
Tera *nikaah* padha,
Mera *janaaza* padha.
*Farq sirf itna sa tha...*
Tujhe *apnaya* gayaa,
Mujhe *dafnaaya* gayaa.

Maut ki Fikar Na karta tha
Gunah ko Gunah Na samajhta tha.

DiL chahta tha ke Padhun Namaz
Par Masjid tak Jism na le jata tha.

Duniya ki Ronaq mein Magan tha
Waqt Dosti mein Barbad krta tha.

Phir Ek Din achaanak Andhera chhaaya
Aankh khuli to Khud ko Qabar me paaya.

Phir ALLAH ne Poocha ke kya le kar aaya?

Ghar jaana chaaha lekin jaa na paaya.

Qabar ki Tanhaai ne bohot daraaya.

Aawaz di Apnon ko toh koi nahin aaya.

Waqt hai, sambhal jaa...

Quran ka ek ruku rozaana padhne se, saal mein teen Quran mukammal ho jaate hain. Alhumdulillah!
